Well I have done a lot of searching so far but have not found an impeller to order as of yet at a decent price.

Not to mention the person that sold me a broken pump for $120 has not come forward at all. I know I will NEVER EVER buy a mechanical part sight unseen. Can be trusting anymore.

I feel for you. I bought an r/o unit over the phone from a store that I dealt with alot. The dude sent me a peice of crap that was apparentely was not even supposed to be sold to the public. So NO WARRANTY. Had a problem with it from day one as well. Same guy sold a buddy of mine a chiller and still owes him peices for it. So this is what the world is coming to. Can't trust anybody. I've even been nice and not mentioned who he is. Sorry Grizz not trying to hijack.

Greg, I really feel for you my friend. I was in the similar boat when i got my cube tank and I would NEVER EVER buy anything unseen and not tested without really knowing that person.

Anyway, you should call Big Al and Gold to check if they have the part.

I try to call Golds from the # on the 411.ca but all I got was a fax machine, do you have there # by chance.

The cheapest I have found online is $75 USD but have only found 1 place that will ship here.

You might just want to cut that pump out. That mag will be so loud that you wont be able to think. I tried a mag 24 as a return and my wife almost left me. You will be able to here it from anywhere in your house.

You might consider getting a Dart they push 3200 and the can be dialed back.
I run one on my closed loop and they are a great pump. You can get used ones for around $200 usually. Just make sure the shaft seals are good.
There was an ad for a Dart gold on here I think it was from Aquatics addiction his personal stuff that he had left over. Almost new if I remember right.
